I think it is the economists who are thick. Atw was one of the better ones. Just make lots of random predictions - then only remember the ones that come true.

Buy-To-Let = Boomed!
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7413849.stm
The downturn in property sales is having a positive affect on buy-to-let, a survey from the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (Rics) suggests.
Its survey of residential lettings says the number of surveyors reporting a rise in instructions to let property rose by 29% in the quarter to April.
Weaker demand to buy houses has forced sellers back into the rental market, where yields are rising, Rics says.
"The sales market's loss is the lettings market's gain," said Rics spokesperson James Scott-Lee.
